The South Burnett U16 girls also took on Hervey Bay in an unusual game that was played across two fields.

The match, which had been scheduled to be played on the main arena, began on a secondary field to allow ambulance paramedics to tend to an injured player accidentally knocked out during the last of the Stanwell 9s fixture games.

After half-time, with the South Burnett ahead 30-4, the girls’ game shifted to the main field, with spectators in tow.

In the other women’s rugby league game played on Saturday, Nambour defeated the South Burnett Open team 26-16 at Nambour.
